About this tag
The tag 'neighborhood' on WindowsForum.com covers a mix of off-topic news stories and Windows networking questions. Off-topic threads include bizarre local incidents such as a squirrel terrorizing a Vermont neighborhood, a kleptomaniac cat swiping items from gardens, and other unusual crime reports. On the technical side, users discuss Windows network neighborhood features, asking how to display network computers in Windows 7 like in Windows XP, and seeking clarification on shared folder access and whether files are visible to everyone in the neighborhood or only within a home network. The tag thus spans both general interest stories and practical Windows networking queries.
